Firefighters during the Troubles

Before the outbreak of the Troubles, a typical firefighter's year might have included call-outs to chimney fires, the occasional house fire or road accident, then everything changed, and Northern Ireland's firefighters spent almost every day of the next thirty years racing to the scenes of atrocities, running towards the gravest danger.

Inainte de izbucnirea Problemelor, un an tipic al pompierilor ar fi putut include apeluri la focuri de cos, ocazional incendiu sau accident rutier, apoi totul s-a schimbat, iar pompierii din Irlanda de Nord au petrecut aproape fiecare zi din urmatorii treizeci de ani alergand pe scena de atrocitati, alergand catre cel mai grav pericol.
